Is there any reason why this is happening ? - it's across all browsers btw. And to add, I've only been with PN for about 24 hours. Yesterday everything was fine; today it's getting kinda frustrating waiting for pages to open, only to be presented with an error message (i.e. website is taking too long to respond etc..). Even the front page of Google is playing up.
I can't quite understand why a day later there's problems when in the first few hours of being online, everything was literally perfect.

If you are still having issues, then log in to the router, drop the ppp connection and re-connect.
EDIT:
I think it has something to do with this:-
Where the red stops is when I changed g/w's

Might be worth checking your line for problems.

Balancing across the platform is far far better (outside of maintenance periods) than it's been all year, so I/we really need to know if you are seeing demonstrable performance differences between gateways so we can investigate and fix them.

that was why I changed gateways. Hey presto instant webpages again. Now if that isn't related to PURELY changing the g/w then I don't know what.
Quote large increase in the time it took for traffic to travel to you during that period
Given the option of phoning and spending xx min on the line - only to be told to reboot the router, (normal response of 1st line support reboot everything)- or just dropping/starting the ppoe I know which I will choose
Since I was unable to open any NEW web pages, my radio was streaming normally and I was doing other things, I went for the quickest and TRIED AND TESTED way of doing it - change g/w.

Any why would my "line issues" be fixed by a ppoe drop?
Just done a speed test

Nothing noticeably wrong since I changed g/w's.

I only noticed it because I wanted to open a link to a different page, then I couldn't get any current pages to reload, that was when I tried @gateway and got timed out, so I dropped the ppoe and got everything back.

Quote from: Kelly OP was connected to pcl-ag07 and reconnected to pcl-ag02.
Hi Kelly
How could you tell I reconnected ?
And I think I know where the problem was. I was testing blocking certain websites (successful btw), and then deleted them. Before I did that, I 'checked' the box that said 'Use Address Based Filter'. That was when everything wasn't going right. So I unchecked it and normal service resumed.
Hopefully I think that's where the problem was.
